This patch attempts to fix that issue with the same convention.
Excuse me, but I can't interpret why this patch solves the warning.
The warning says that list_for_each_entry_rcu() { } in ieee80211_check_combinations() is called outside of rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock() pair, doesn't it? How does that connected to guarding hci_dev_test_flag() and queue_delayed_work() with rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock() pair? Unless you guard list_for_each_entry_rcu() { } in ieee80211_check_combinations() with rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock() pair (or annotate that appropriate locks are already held), I can't expect that the warning will be solved...
Also, what guarantees that drain_workqueue() won't be disturbed by queue_work(disc_work) which will be called after "timeo" delay, for you are not explicitly cancelling scheduled "disc_work" (unlike "cmd_timer" work and "ncmd_timer" work shown below) before calling drain_workqueue() ?
/* Cancel these to avoid queueing non-chained pending work */ hci_dev_set_flag(hdev, HCI_CMD_DRAIN_WORKQUEUE); /* Wait for * * if (!hci_dev_test_flag(hdev, HCI_CMD_DRAIN_WORKQUEUE)) * queue_delayed_work(&hdev->{cmd,ncmd}_timer) * * inside RCU section to see the flag or complete scheduling. */ synchronize_rcu(); /* Explicitly cancel works in case scheduled after setting the flag. */ cancel_delayed_work(&hdev->cmd_timer); cancel_delayed_work(&hdev->ncmd_timer);
/* Avoid potential lockdep warnings from the *_flush() calls by * ensuring the workqueue is empty up front. */ drain_workqueue(hdev->workqueue);
